HyperX Cloud III Headphones best headphones, I ever own, especially at this price.
The HyperX Cloud III headphones deliver an exceptional, premium experience where it matters most: in their core hardware and fundamental performance. For gamers, audiophiles, and anyone seeking long-wearing comfort, they represent a top-tier choice, held back only by software that needs refinement. Uncompromising Sound Quality The audio fidelity of the Cloud III is outstanding. Whether immersed in the detailed soundscapes of a competitive video game or enjoying music, the sound signature is rich, clear, and well-balanced. The drivers provide excellent positional audio, crucial for gaming, while music playback is rendered with impressive depth and clarity. The 7.1 surround sound, when enabled, creates a genuinely immersive auditory environment. Superb Build Quality & Unmatched Comfort HyperX's reputation for excellent manufacturing is fully evident here. The materials feel robust and durable, from the sturdy aluminum frame to the high-quality leatherette and memory foam of the ear cups. This build translates directly into what is arguably the Cloud III's greatest strength: extreme comfort. The headphones are remarkably lightweight and the plush ear cups create an ideal seal without excessive pressure. They can be worn for marathon gaming sessions or extended music listening with virtually no fatigue, setting a high bar for comfort in its category. The Primary Area for Improvement: Software While the hardware is near-flawless, the accompanying software suite requires significant updates to match the physical product's excellence. The primary issues are: 1. Real-Time Adjustments: Attempting to adjust the EQ or surround sound settings often results in audio cutting out or stuttering. The lack of real-time, seamless adjustment is a notable drawback for users who like to fine-tune their audio on the fly. 2. Microphone Monitoring Control: A dedicated setting to adjust the level of sidetone (microphone monitoring) is absent. Adding this feature would give users precise control over how much of their own voice they hear, which is essential for comfortable communication during long sessions. Verdict In summary, the HyperX Cloud III headphones excel in absolutely every critical hardware aspect: sound quality, build quality, and exceptional comfort. They are a top recommendation for anyone prioritizing these core features. However, the accompanying software needs improvement to unlock their full potential. Once HyperX addresses these software limitations with future updates, the Cloud III will be an even more formidable and complete package.

Wait another year
I’ve had the Cloud Alpha Wireless for more than a few years. Other the occasional static it served me well. Even now I use it in between when my III S is charging. The Cloud III S is a great headset. The only thing I found annoying was the Bluetooth. While it does work, you’re not using it at the same time. So you can pay music on your phone, while gaming using the dongle. It’s Bluetooth or the dongle. That, and the software sucks right now. It’s uses ngenuity beta, and right now despite it being in beta you can use anything. The normal older version doesn’t have the correct drivers so the volume isn’t as loud as it should be. Until you install the beta version. If you already have a headset and looking to upgrade to this, don’t. Wait for another year or two.

Sound is great and built well
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] One of the best headsets I have used. Works well on my Playstation and PC. It fits perfectly on my head and is very comfortable. The pad is soft. It is flexible but very strong, it is built well. The battery lasts a long time, I was able to use for 2 full days before needing to charge. The sound is also great. It has a nice deep sound and does not break.

Headset is amazing!!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This headset is amazing! My husband is a big gamer and these are his new go to’s. The mic works to speak clearly and hear everything perfectly. They fit great and have an adjustable strap for comfort. The battery life lasts pretty long which is great for all day gaming. A good wireless headset is pretty hard to come by, but these are awesome!

Comfort + Sound + Freedom = Surpassed my Expectati
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the HyperX Cloud for a week now, and I’m seriously impressed. Right out of the box, it felt premium. Set up was within minutes. The sound quality? Crisp highs, solid mids, and deep bass for a wireless headset. The audio is super clear and immersive. The detachable mic also gives great voice clarity without background noise. Battery life is amazing. The comfort level is 10/10, memory foam ear cushions are so soft, I barely notice I’m wearing them even after hours. Honestly, I can just keep telling more and more good things about this headset, so much great impressions. You guys go grab it and enjoy!!!

Comfortable and reliable
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely LOVE this for gaming! I’ve been testing it the last few days. The fit is nice and snug but also comfortable on the ears and the head. Sound quality is great, haven’t had any issues with cutting out or it sounding fuzzy. It seems nice and well made, durable. I think it’ll last a long time. Battery seems good too, have not had issues yet. Overall really enjoy this and it will be my go to!

The HyperX Cloud II Wireless offers comfort, durab
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The HyperX Cloud II Wireless Gaming Headset delivers a compelling mix of comfort, durability, and solid audio for PC, PS4, PS5, and Nintendo Switch gamers. Its 30-hour battery life impresses, though newer models like the Cloud Alpha Wireless last longer. It has a premium feeling aluminum frame, plush memory foam earcups, and adjustable fit, they were comfort during long sessions, though glasses-wearers may find it snug. The drivers produce clear, balanced sound with virtual 7.1 surround for immersive gaming, but bass lacks punch for music. The detachable mic is decent but not exceptional. My only complaints are that it lacks a 3.5mm jack and its not compatible with any Xbox, apart from that, its build and comfort make it a strong mid-range choice
